The planned improvements include upgrades to the belt-dewatering press equipment; replacement of variable-frequency drives, asphalt shingle and rubber-roof replacement; improvements to the ultra-violet disinfection equipment; and system-wide pump, hydraulic, and valve replacements, according to the EFC.
